JSON Decoder

Summary: PortSwigger's BApp Store lists a third-party Burp Suite extension called JSON Decoder, version 1.2, authored by Michal Melewski and last updated 24 January 2017. The extension adds a tab to Burp's HTTP message editor that displays JSON messages in decoded form and requires Jython version 2.7 or later.

Why it matters: This is a third-party extension last updated in January 2017, and PortSwigger states it makes no warranty about the quality or usefulness of extensions written by third-party Burp users - so anyone running it in a testing workflow is relying on code that has not been refreshed in roughly nine years.
